Myanmar primed for Suzuki Cup

Myanmar, Timor-Leste, Laos and Brunei all remain a chance of qualifying for this year’s AFF Suzuki Cup.

Ahead of the final day of qualifying matches, Myanmar sit three points clear atop the group and should book their place at the tournament in Malaysia and Thailand with a win over Laos.

Brunei and Timor-Leste, who are in the second and final qualifying place, do battle in the other game at Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon.

If Myanmar defeat Laos, Timor-Leste will only need a point against Brunei to guarantee their place.

Emerson Alcantara’s Timor-Leste have scored a qualifying-high nine goals, with Adelino Trindade, Alan Leandro and Murilo de Almeida netting three each.

Adelino’s one-step curling effort in his team’s 5-1 thrashing of Cambodia has been the pick of the goals through qualifying so far.
